Rep Power: 0 WTF? the Prolumens don't come with a built-in glare shield? that little strip of material on the bulb doesn't do jack for the glare.
I was thinking of purchasing the prolumens but they're worthless if they don't come with glare shields. Do you know if the XTEC ones have glare shields?
Cause if those HID kits don't have glare shields, then it'd probably be better to source out ballasts/bulbs/casper shields and just use OEM stuff. It's possibly cheaper if you can make the wiring harness yourself.

Rep Power: 0 I think you should stop fooling around and get yer new car to Edmonton so I can drool all over it.
Then we can go for some Chinese food.
Or, we could do a Saturday BBQ at Hawrelak Park. Mmmmmmmmmmmm... Grilled foods... Yum!
That would be weather permitting, of course.

Rep Power: 272 Weather permitting is the key....
There are currently flood warnings for Southern Alberta. We even got a "no water use" advisory for Lethbridge b/c of the murkyness of the river...
High River is living up to it's name. I guess the town is being evacuated, as is Bragg Creek. So far, it's been raining since Wednesday...
I phoned my cousin in Edmonton and he told me it's like +22C up there... WTF???
